Definitions
- Tooth bleaching typically tnvoi ves the application of a peroxide containing composition to the surface of the tooth enamel to achieve & desired whitening effect
- the most com mon peroxide donor ingredients are, but are not limited to t carbar ⁇ ide (urea) peroxide and hydrogen peroxide.
- urea urea
- the latter has become the tooth bleaching materia! of choice due to its ability to whiten teeth faster than higher concentrations of carbamide peroxide.
- aqueous tooth wh itening gels have proven desirable due to the hydrating effects on the structure of the tooth, reducing the likelihood of tooth sensitivity. As such, it is desirable to achieve stable aqueous hydrogen peroxide tooth whitening gels for commercial preparation,
- Aqueous hydrogen peroxide tooth bleaching formulations have their limitations however. Until recent years, stable aqueous hydrogen peroxide tooth bleaching gels have been virtually non-existent. Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizing agent and an. unstable compound that decomposes readily over time into water and oxygen. Certain chemical and physical influences can accelerate the rate of decomposition and need to be controlled for a $table tooth whitening gel. to exist. Temperature, pH and errant metal ions all have a profound effect, on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, particularly in an aqueous formula.
- Aqueous tooth whitening gels comprising high levels of hydrogen peroxide are defined as comprising an available hydrogen peroxide concentration, equal to or greater than, about 15% of the total composition weight up to and including about 40% of the total composition weight.
- th ese high level hydrogen peroxide compositions require the gel. to be refrigerated to reduce the rate of decomposition., thus enabling ant increased shelf life. This process is difficult as well as expensive for commercial distributors to maintain adequate shelf life for salable product
- high level hydrogen peroxide bleaching compositions are generally delivered to the end user in a two-part system packaged form mat maximizes peroxide stability.
- Packaging stabilized hydrogen peroxide solutions separately from other formulation ingredients is one method that enables manufacturers to meet required sheif life parameters.
- Two types of separation methods are dual barrel syringes and liquid hydrogen peroxide/powder systems.
- the disadvantages to these types of packaging are that the hydrogen peroxide must be mixed at the time of placement in the dental operatory, thus resulting in a loss of valuable chair time and the unwillingness for patients to prolong the tooth whitening experience.
- shelf stability is generally determined by placing the product under abnormal or exaggerated storage conditions for a predetermined amount of time to ensure a. product's stability under normal storage conditions.
- Room temperature storage conditions, for a single component tooth bleaching composition are desirable in order to eliminate costly and inconvenient storage problems. To a greater degree, & two year room temperature storage guarantee is what is required for distribution of a single component aqueous tooth bleaching composition.
- aqueous hydrogen peroxide tooth whitening composition also lias great bearing oti the stability of the gel.
- Hydrogen peroxide solutions are strongly acidic and maintain their stability in acidic pB formulas.
- Stable aqueous hydrogen peroxide tooth whitening gels caw be formulated in the acid pH range.
- bleaching compositions k ⁇ the acidic pH range (pR 2.0-5.5) are prone to the demineralization of dental enamel by the solublizi ng calcium ions from the tooth surface. This reduction in surface enamel leads to tooth sensitivity and discomfort for the patient
- Decomposition of tire peroxide within the formula can result in viscosity loss of the composition, expansion of the composition due to the evolution of oxygen gas and/or the loss of available hydrogen peroxide content
